My family and I have lived in Church Road Rawreth for over 26 years and have experienced several severe cases of flooding in the road/area. I am in disbelief that you would even consider building more new houses with the threat of flooding and impact this could also have on the current residents. The houses opposite your site flooded this year ! We have no mains sewage and the road is so narrow there is a width restriction at one end to limit large vehicles. This is the only village feel location left in in Rawreth as hundreds of houses have already been built in the vicinity. The road floods at two point (on the bend and near the Chichester Hotel), therefore residents are cut off when the river floods.
